Yes - a few locals around here (me included) have been invited to get the jab at the large central London hospitals St Thomas/UCLH etc and asked why they were expected to travel into London when there is local jabbery half a mile down the road. The advice is to contact your GP and get the location changed. Mine contacted me about 2 hours after receiving the Euston UCLH invite.
The only business I recall having with them is with an ophthalmologist. -
Yes of course, on receiving a vaccine invitation you should absolutely immediately interrogate the people inviting you who definitely have nothing better to do. FFS

n her case it was asthma that she had suffered as a child, but had long since cleared up, but it was on her medical records and that's all it took to flag her for an early vaccine.
This is basically me. It hasn't been a problem for years, I've had no attacks, no signs of it for years, but my doctors still insist on reviewing it and giving me the flu jab every year because I'm considered higher risk.
Pretty sure this means I will get the vaccine earlier, but they're the doctors and I gave up arguing about it years ago.

And a lot even younger than that. One 30 year old around here (on a local forum) was surprised at being invited, called her GP practice (who had sent the invite) and was told it was because she had one of the health conditions that constituted getting the jab early. In her case it was asthma that she had suffered as a child, but had long since cleared up, but it was on her medical records and that's all it took to flag her for an early vaccine.
I guess a lot of the work for identifying these new cohorts is being by computer trawling the medical records, hence the story of the 6cm high bloke from Liverpool above being called because of his miscalculated BMI.
